I have been having some trouble determining from the typical tests which of the two types I am. As far as I can tell, I definately some of the distinct qualtities of both, but it mostly depends on the situation and what type of response is needed. Sometimes I will feel my way through something, other times I'll think it out more logically. A further interesting note might be that I'm noticing a trend, moving more toward Feeling things out than Thinking about them. Most of my years growing up I have been extremely analytical and suppressive of emotions. Over the past year or two however, coinciding with a few particular life-changing events, I've been moving away from that constant logic and asking myself, how do I really FEEL about this and what's missing in my usual interpretation, not just what the computer up there reads. It's been a source of confusion and conflict within myself, almost as if my emotions are calling out for attention after being pushed down for so long... If pressed to choose one or the other, I would say I'm more INTP, but I can't ignore that I seem to have a side that screams INFP.

I'm not very learned on the MBTI and such things yet, though I do pick up on it pretty quick.
